Jasprit Bumrah became the third Indian bowler to take a hat-trick in Test cricket. Bumrah joined an elite club of Indian bowlers -- Harbhajan Singh and Irfan Pathan -- to claim a Test hat-trick. Both the players took to Twitter to congratulate the new entrant into the elite club. "Sensational @Jaspritbumrah93 well done on your great spell.. welcome in the hattrick club so so so proud of you. Keep it going brother," the off-spinner tweeted. Irfan Pathan, who took his Test hat-trick against arch-rivals Pakistan, also congratulated Bumrah on his special achievement. "Welcome to the #Hattrick club @Jaspritbumrah93," Pathan's congratulatory tweet read.

Bumrah decimated the West Indies top-order in his opening spell, reducing them to 22/5 inside 13 overs. Bumrah dismissed Darren Bravo, Shamarh Brooks and Roston Chase off successive balls in the 9th over of the Windies innings. In fact, Bumrah's hat-trick became possible only after Indian skipper Virat Kohli challenged umpire's on-field decision using DRS after a leg-before appeal.

"I was not very sure of the appeal. I thought it was bat. So, I didn't appeal so much but it was a good review in the end. So, I think I owe that hat-trick to the captain," Bumrah told Virat Kohli, in a video posted by the BCCI on Twitter.

After his opening spell, Bumrah once again came back into the attack towards the end of the day to get rid of West Indies skipper Jason Holder.
